Cancer therapies can cause a variety of cardiac toxicities, including ischemia, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, myocarditis, arrhythmias, vascular disease, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Addressing cardiovascular risk at baseline, before initiating therapy, during cancer treatment, and in the survivorship period is imperative. It may be useful to risk stratify individuals with cardiovascular risk factors using biomarkers or imaging before they receive potentially cardiotoxic therapies. Additionally, new guidelines recommend cardiac imaging with echocardiography in the survivorship period 6 to 12 months after completing cancer therapy for these high-risk individuals. Close collaboration between cardiology and oncology in both clinical practice and future research is essential.
